Application filed September 4, 1915. Serial No. 48,997.

A sleeve 6 is interposed between 'the rings l and 5 and serves as aguard for the lower portion of a liquid receptacle 7. A yieldablesupport 8 for the receptacle 7 is arranged within the sleeve 6 andcomprises a coiled expansion spring '9 interposed between the ring 4:and a collar 10 through which the neck of the receptacle? is passed topermit the shoulders of the receptacle to' bear on the collar as shown.

Detachably connected with the neck "of the receptacle 7 is a-cap llhavi'ng formed thereon a channeled extension 12 normally extending belowthe ring 4 through the aperture therein, the channel in the extension=-being normally closed to prevent the escape of liquid from thereceptacle by a gravity controlled valve 13, the stem of which when Ithe valve is in position to close the channel in the extension extendsbeyond the lower end of the extension as shown.

A conical liquid directing member 11 has its base secured to the ring -1in any suitable manner and has extending transversely thereof, a bar 15arrzm red below the valve stem 13 and adapted to, contact therewith whenpressure is appliedto the liquid receptacle'7 to move the same in adownward direction, thus unseating the valve and per- .mitting theliquid within the receptacle to be discharged into the liquid directingmember 14.

A waste receptacle 16 is arranged within the aperture in the. ring 3 andis provided with a perforated cover17.

WVhen a barber desires to obtain some of barber.-

thereby int-o the hand ofthe of'liquid has When the desired quantitybeen obtained, the barber releases the pressure upon the liquidreceptacle 7 so that the yieldable support therefor will move the samein an upward valve 13 to close the channel in the extension12.

.S ecured'to the under surface of the ring will be discharged" intothe,conical member 14 and directed direction to enable the 4 beneath theopening therein isan inverted frusto-conical fluid directing member 14into which extends the stem of the valve l3;
